Khan Vs Hatton?

WBA light-welterweight challenger Amir Khan has revealed there is a chance he could fight Ricky Hatton in the future.

Providing Khan comes through the contest, he could well be on collision course with Manchester favourite Hatton.

Whats your views on this and predictions "if" the fight did happen?

Ricky is local boy in my area (Hyde) and a very popular, grounded character... I sometimes see him driving around in a yellow Reliant Robin, and he's known for frequenting the local butty shop. Money really hasn't changed him.

Ricky's getting on a bit now, but if it happens I hope he knocks Khan's block off.

Personally i think Hatton would win. Khan doesnt trust his chin, but hatton would have to land one first

Yeah local support will be rooting for Hatton. I always laugh... at school the teachers had no response when the ones with smart mouths responded by saying Hatton getting excluded from the school did him no harm

Hatton in the 1st round

Khan would be going up a weight, I don't think you go up a weight and fight an experienced former world champion straight away, and i'm not sure Hatton is going to sit around waiting for a while for Khan to get the practice in.

Either way I see no point in either of them taking the fight...

Hatton doesn't exactly need the money from fighting he needs to hang his gloves up and concentrate on Hatton Promotions, he'll still get the money from that.

Khan will get bigger fights if he carries on fighting as he is and taking the fights Warren is getting him and soon enough he'll get bigger fights for belts, he'll make it over to America and fight names there and make a lot more than he will fighting here.

Personally I'd be surprised if the fight did go ahead as I don't think either of them really need it.
